The Petrified Coat by Olga Stepanek 1 the Petrified THE PETRIFIED COAT BY OLGA STEPANEK 1 THE PETRIFIED COAT Shortly before my fourth daughter was born, I made an announcement that startled my usually compliant and devoted husband. "You know," I said, trying to sound off—hand and casual, "I think I need a new fur coat." "A WHAT!" "A coat. A new fur coat." "A fur coat?" he said in a loud and unbelieving voice that suggested that I had informed him of my desire to own a diamond bracelet. "But you have a fur coat---a beautiful fur coat." Then, eyeing me a bit strangely and as if he didn't really want to hear my reply, he added: "What's wrong with it?" I tried to conceal my impatience but could not repress a very audible and cutting sigh which immediately electrified the atmosphere and invisibly armed us both for battle. "What's wrong with it??" I gasped. Do you realize my father bought that coat for me when I was a junior in college?" Not waiting for him to interrupt, I sailed on indignantly, giving him a quick resume of what amounted to the life history of the muskrats from the time of their slaughter in 1925 to what I hoped would be the demise of the coat. I went on. "At school I wore it for two solid years, then it went to Europe with me for a year, then to the University of Chicago, then it taught school with me for a year in a very cold Illinois town where I seldom spent a winter's day without it. Then we were married. I was still wearing that fur coat. Remember the cold December day and the wedding? Have you forgotten how I wore it over my wedding dress after the ceremony? Yes, I know,"--I saw he was about to interrupt, but I was determined to round out the drama with a climatic finale--- "I know you thought it was stunning. It was new to you---see? Well, you know what happened. I just wore it some more. First child, second child, third child and now fourth child coming and I'm sick of it!" "Of bearing children, you mean?" "No. You know what I mean.” Suddenly I remembered the crowning and most withering point in my argument. " Do you realize, my darling," I asked with a rather disdainful calm, "do you realize that you have never bought me a winter coast?" I don't know why I expected that scathing remark to make him hang his head in shame. Instead, he smiled broadly. "Lucky, wasn't I, darling, that your father knew a good fur coat when he saw one. It's remarkable how that thing wears. Looks brand m new. Remarkable!" "Remarkable??" I was angry."Have you noticed," and I ran to the closet to snatch it from the hanger, "have you noticed the edges? All worn---in fact, they're getting ragged. Look!" Orin examined the edges critically. He's very good with a needle and I knew instinctively what his next comment would be, but I generously let him hold forth, feeling all in a moment that I really had become slightly hysterical and unreasonable to suddenly throw the coat at him as if it had been a bomb. "That's easy," he said. "Just needs turning in. I can fix that in no time. It has plenty of lap. Simple. Is that the only place it shows wear?" Unfortunately it was, but I had a bigger and better argument to hurl, though I didn't expect him to appreciate it to the full as Orin is not too aware of changing styles in women's clothes. I hated to sound like a fifteen year old adolescent, but the truth was the truth so I said, with a womanly and dignified air: THE PETRIFIED COAT BY OLGA STEPANEK 2 "It's simply all wrong. It's out of style!" "It is?" he asked incredulously. "How?" "Look at this collar. They just don't make them this way anymore-- they haven't, not since 1926 and it's 1939 now!" "Funny, I always liked that collar." Exasperated, I continued. "If it only had a decent collar, the kind that stands up, straight, and buttons at the neck instead of lapping over in this horrible way, maybe I wouldn't feel so conspicuous. But this one is impossible!!" I gave the collar a wrench. "How do you mean--stand up?" Putting the coat on, I showed him. Considering my ballooning size at that particular time (I expected to go to the hospital within three weeks), I did not cut the figure that would have impressed a model agency, even in a fur coat. It should have been a point in my favor just then for I certainly added little grace and charm to the poor little worn out muskrats as I paraded clumsily about the living room, trying my hardest to look drab and old fashioned. Orin seemed not to notice the preposterous billowing of the coat, which looked then more like a coon skin tent than a wrap. In fact, he thinks wives that are pregnant are noble looking, so the coat doubtless appeared, in his eyes, more entrancingly beautiful than ever. Ha had a look of deep admiration in his face! "It's not worth spending the money to have it remodelled," I said. "I'm not that fond of the coat." "You know," he said, studying it seriously for a few moments, "I could easily do it myself; I know just what you mean. But it will have to have some sort of stiffening under the lining of the collar to make it stand up. Let's see---" And he caught the coat as it slipped from my shoulders and gently caressed the collar. "Oh, nonsense, you can't fix it. Forget it. Forget I ever said anything about a coat. I can bear it. My friends are- all used to me in this thing now. Might be too much of a shock to them if I looked modish all of a sudden," I added. I was sorry at once for that sarcastic uncalled for remark but I didn't admit it, especially since it didn't look as if Orin's heart was heavy with sorrow at my having to put up with that disreputable looking wrap. Just the same I couldn't help noticing that sweet and unruffled look on his face as he sat that evening, deep in thought, glancing now and again at the coat, his hair rumpled, his shirt sleeves rolled up, thinking, doubtless, of the collar and the problem he would have to solve. Just as I was about to say, "I'm sorry I ever mentioned it," he suddenly jumped from the davenport. "I have it!" "What?" I asked. "Remember when we moved the ice box from the beck hall into the kitchen?" I must have looked frightened out of my wits at this sadden turn in the conversation for he thought better of disclosing his impulsive notion and simply said: "I think that would work fine. I'll have your collar fixed by tomorrow night." At that I went to bed. The following afternoon, after returning from my weekly Walking Club (I had left Orin in charge of the three children), I found the living room in a typical state of happy disarray. The four of them had been having a rip roaring time, it seemed. The dining room chairs were in the living room, turned upside down for doll beds. In one corner a blanket hung pinned from one THE PETRIFIED COAT BY OLGA STEPANEK 3 window to another. Coloring books were strewn over the rugs. There were crumbs on the sofa. All of this was a familiar setting on my days off. This time, however, bits of fur seemed to be floating about here and there. I knew Orin had been up to something and I didn't have long to wonder for, five minutes after I returned he presented me with the remodelled coat. "Look", he said, beaming impishly. "I did it. I made a nice stand up collar. Slip it on. He held it up. I slipped my arms into the sleeves and then Wham! Something hard settled on my shoulders. "Button it up! Button it up before you say anything!" he ordered. I buttoned it and took a glance in the mirror. Definitely a clever improvement. "But, Orin," I said, "what makes the collar so stiff and so heavy" "Is it heavy? Oh well, I don't think you'll notice it when you get used to it. It does make it stand up nice and stiff, doesn't it now?" I fingered the collar, puzzled, and looked again at Orin who seemed pleased but also guilty, somethimg; I couldn't , for the moment, figure out. "But Orin, what's in it? it's so hard!" "Well," he began, "remember the time we moved the ice box?" That ice box again! "What on earth has it got to do with this?" I demanded impatiently "We--ll, after we moved it I tore up the linoleum under it. Just happened to rave a few strips of that linoleum, thought it might come in handy some day. And it did. Darling, that's part of the linoleum flooring I put under your collar!" Suddenly I began to laugh. I laughed till I cried and had Orin worried for awhile. I hated to tell him that though he had neatly hidden it under the lining of the collar so that no—one would ever guess I was having my neck supported by linoleum, I knew I couldn't bear the weight for more than ten minutes at a time.

  • The Cinematic Worlds of Michael Jackson
    MA 330.004 / MA430.005 /AMST 341.002 Fall 2016 Revised: 10-7-16 The Cinematic Worlds of Michael Jackson Course Description: From his early years as a child star on the Chitlin’ Circuit and at Motown Records, through the concert rehearsal documentary This is It (released shortly after his death in 2009), Michael Jackson left a rich legacy of recorded music, televised performances, and short films (a description he preferred to “music video”). In this course we’ll look at Jackson’s artistic work as key to his vast influence on popular culture over the past 50 years. While we will emphasize the short films he starred in (of which Thriller is perhaps the most famous), we will also listen to his music, view his concert footage and TV appearances (including some rare interviews) and explore the few feature films in which he appeared as an actor/singer/dancer (The Wiz, Moonwalker). We’ll read from a growing body of scholarly writing on Jackson’s cultural significance, noting the ways he drew from a very diverse performance and musical traditions—including minstrelsy, the work of dance/choreography pioneers like Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly, and soul/funk legends like James Brown and Jackie Wilson—to craft a style uniquely his own. Crucially, we will ask how Jackson’s shifting public persona destabilize categories of gender, sexuality, and race----in a manner that was very different from his contemporaries: notably, the recently-deceased David Bowie and Prince. Elevated to superstardom and then made an object of the voracious cultural appetite for scandal, Michael Jackson is now increasingly regarded as a singularly influential figure in the history of popular music and culture.

  • My Heart Christ's Home by Robert Boyd Munger
    My Heart Christ's Home By Robert Boyd Munger “Robert Boyd Munger (1911-2001) was a Presbyterian minister who wrote this timeless work in 1951. It was a vividly compelling then, and I have found no other essay on the ABC's of the Christian life, other than Scripture itself, so impacting as Munger's wonderful work still today.” (Quote from a Christian leader) In Paul's epistle to the Ephesians, we find these words: "That (God) would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith" (Ephesians 3:16). Or, as another has translated, "That Christ may settle down and be at home in your hearts by faith." Without question one of the most remarkable Christian doctrines is that Jesus Christ Himself through the presence of the Holy Spirit will actually enter a heart, settle down and be at home there. Christ will make the human heart His abode. Our Lord said to His disciples, "If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him" (John 14:23). It was difficult for them to understand what He was saying. How was it possible for Him to make his abode with them in this sense? It is interesting that our Lord used the same word here that He gave them in the first of the fourteenth chapter of John: "I go to prepare a place for you .

  • Regional Directors Remember Michael
    Regional Directors Remember Michael Thinking of Michael Some of the qualities that come to mind when thinking of Michael are his creativity, his vision and his total commitment to justice and peace. He was daring. He’d think up a project that was by all standards impossible to accomplish, and then make it happen. He took things in stride, and was usually able to discover some humor along the way. Michael was both thoughtful and bold; he was also gentle and kind. I recall a small, insignificant incident that happened when I was a very new RD. It’s quite unimportant, but it’s stayed with me all these years. We (RCG) had gone out to supper together, probably the first one for me. If my memory is correct, for some reason Madeline hadn’t gone with us. However, she was going to pick me up, I think because I was staying with her that night. The meal ended and folks were leaving, but Madeline hadn’t arrived yet. I was sure she was coming and didn’t mind waiting, but Michael insisted on staying with me till she got there: just a small, insignificant gesture, but typical of his gentle, caring ways. Eloise Cranke Michael was a deeply community-loving force. He was committed to building the "beloved community." And he was witty, humorous, and engaging. We are all blessed and better to have known him. Wilson Riles Although Michael battled cancer for five years, this is still a shock and a great sadness. I find myself moving the last two days through images and Michael’s voice, pieces of which float in and out of consciousness as I try to move through my day.
